Defending my Tower the engineering way...

[@Frameton.]

a house doesn't give you the gold according to the level of the tower but according to the current level of the game (number of adjacent towers x wave = gold). If you place a tower next to a house in round 1 it will have given you about 1000 gold by the end of the game, not massive but ballistas are pretty cheap so I would recommend doing it. Also, path splits don't double the number of enemies they just divide them equally.

[@EraChanZ]

Yup.. building next to houses is the best way to get money for quite some time.. He's making a lot of beginner mistakes, but I suppose that's the charm of watching our cute special little engineer :')

[@dapsychokilla]

not exactly equally. theres a bit of RNG involved

[@huffy737]

Also enemies don't "burn" equal to the number shown. The number is how long they will be hurt by whatever fire, poison or bleed is damaging them. The damage starts at 25/s then gets buffed with cards from there. Unlock a shedder next time and try to level up tower up stats in the box on their right after you select them. You can make special towers out for each status. Shield and armor snipers essentially set to target the "Most Shielded or Armored" enemies.

[@grimnekropolis8500]

To add on to it, the more towers around the house the more gold you get

[@Ynox54321]

Everything he could have gotten wrong, he got wrong

[@meachyofficial]

In tower defense games, towers close together should ALWAYS aim at different priorities. If they're all aimed at the first enemy, only one of the shots counts when enemy dies, very architectury.

The towers in this game upgrade themselves and upgrading the towers individually is quite useless.

[@fantom9013]

@@omnipotank so what is that upgrade tab on the right when you click any tower? As I remember autolevelling only increases damage. Looks like it wasn't enough.

[@thegoodman5682]

Towers level up as they kill enemies, the level up gives them a free upgrade depending on which kind of damage they dealt (health/armor/shields). It is a bad idea to upgrade towers manually if you have a lot of towers. Just let them gain levels organically. It is good when you have a killzone with an Area of Effect tower though. You won't need as many towers since you are doing AoE damage.

[@lalimalik6614]

@@fantom9013 you can complete the game without manually leveling a tower. In this game its pretty useless

[@jakador9674]

You should better know the difference between armor and shield. Shields are the gray parts of life bars, and armor is yellow. And every tower is specifically effective agains health, armor or shield.

The houses aren't dependent on the level of the towers next to it, its dependent on the level of the round that your on. 4 towers around a house on level 1 pays you 4 gold. 4 towers around a house on level 10 pays you 40 gold even if the towers themselves are level 1

This seems awesome! Lots of upgrades and no need to upgrade each turret individually. Amazing! I’m not a big fan of rogue-like games, and I’m not fond of this graphics style either, but I’m going to download that game.

[@____5837]

A lot of missing and incorrect stuff in this video. 1 armour is yellow, shield is blue, not the other way around 2 you keept targeting max health to try and target high armour enemies in the first game 3 houses pay out based on the level you reached (round number), not the level of the turret 4 you completely missed spending gold to upgrade turrets at any point 5 when selling a turret you get back the cost to buy the previous turret of that type, not the cost you paid. You do not get back any level up you bought for it though 6 the burn damage is not the amount they are burning per second (that increases with cards), it is the amount of burn damage ready to be applied to them

[@danielbiesdorf]

Hey, Matt! Talking about addictive games, you should try Risk of Rain (1 or 2). It's kinda like vampire survivors. And also, I think Party Hard would make an amazing series in this channel. The final station too. I love your channel, thanks for all of the content you create ❤️

[@mobbox9009]

when you put a tower on higher terrain it doesnt mean its getting more damage, it means its getting more range, thats why the tesla coil at 17:08 seemed to hit farther than the other ones

[@tenou213]

Aren't engineers supposed to read instructions and draft schematics first? Then ideally plan things out before the first screw is drilled in.

[@mathkiller9765]

I’m not sure but I think that putting your tower higher (when it’s said +1/+2/+3) it doesn’t increase the damage, but it increases the range of the tower. Hope to see more video on this game😁

[@granatmof]

Flame throwers are great on the long straights, teslas are great on the higher levels in the middle of circles as you saw. The real trick is to just keep playing to unlock permanent buffs and more cards.

[@goblinphreak2132]

Tesla Coil GREAT for the big corner turn tiles.... because on a +3 the coil will hit the entire path around the corner turn. so it works out really well. so far ive gotten to like level 27 by doing this. i think in order to win, you really need all the tower types. its hard to go with just one type the whole game. Sadly, each type has its own damage. Tesla great against shields. Mortar great against armor. Ballista great against health. Radar great against health. etc.

[@chaster8798]

If you click on a tower, on the left of the tower UI, you can upgrade individual stats for the tower. That way you can compensate for fighting against high HP, armor, shield type enemies. Yellow = Armor Green = HP Blue = Shield

Those "tanks" are called siege rams or battering rams. These were once used to break down walls and gates with a large, as the name implies, battering ram usually made out of logs with armour on the front. The rams were also used to protect the troops under it from arrows, ballistas and other ranged weapons.

Keep your defenses closer to your tower! If they’re too far away they’ll get distracted by the enemies farther away from reaching your tower which pose less immediate risk. Also when you need to preserve mana posting them closer to your tower will help while best utilizing the area damage to kill multiple foes at once after they’ve been previously damaged and right before they could potentially reach your tower.
